December Daily 2022: Day 20
I know, I know! Christmas is over, but I KNOW I’m not the only one still working on my album! I’m super happy that I’m on day 20 though and I’m going to finish before the new year!
Day 20
Today’s story is all about my youngest’s first band concert (he plays alto sax!) which was complete and utter chaos, as one would expect from 6th grade band.
I used the two envelope foundation page I created in my Stress-Free December Daily Prep Day 4 Video as the beginning page for this multi-page spread and then inserted two 5x8.5” photos in the rings and added a pocket page for good measure.
The backside is a family photo and the pockets include photos of the concert itself and of Finn.

I had these gold vellum stars in my Christmas stash from last year’s Cocoa Daisy December collection, and I believe the “winter” came from there as well. I like the way they interact with the photo and the 2+star for the 20 is really fun!
In the envelopes, I included the journal card I made with the foundation page and the program for the concert.
On the pocket page side, I had a ton of fun creating a shaker pouch flip up for this photo that I didn’t need to see much of (you can’t see my kid, so an overall impression of the photo is fine) and a title card on the opposite side. I love the “this was absolute chaos” addition because IT WAS.
I also love that when you flip the card up, all the glitter falls to the bottom of the card and frames “December” nicely.
Lastly, I added more stars and a title to the bottom of our family photo and the page was done!
